*“ lovellght that
Blows In a woman's eyes at the sight of
her flesh and blood represented in the
tiny infant. Every woman In the Joy of
coming motherhood should prepare her
system for the crisis and the unusual
strain. Three generations have found the
tried and reliable external application,
“Mother's Friend” of the greatest help at
such a time. By Us dally use throughout
the period, the skin of the abdomen is
made soft and clastic, the expanding
muscles relax naturally and with ease,
when baby arrives, and the inflammation
of breast glands Is soothed.
By no chance neglect to obtain this
great preparation which science lias of
fered for so many years to expectant
mothers. Write the Bradfleld Regu

Atlanta, Ga., for their helpful and interest

It is free and is well worth writing for.
No woman should fail to help nature in
the severest strain ever put upon her.
•'Mother’s Friend" is procurable from any
druggist and is a real help to nature in
her glorious work. "Mother’s Friend" is
absolutely and entirely safe.

Marked conservation of coal.
Increased manufacturing produc
tion as the result of improvement in

recreation.
Reduction in the cost of living to
some who can raise garden truck for

Inactive Kidneys
Cause Disease
"I shall not soon forget the benefits I derived
from the oh of Foley Kidney Pills.” —AL A
Godfrey, Forest Grove, Oregon.
Too much work and too little work
seem to have about the same effect
on persons past middle age. Proper
action of the kidneys is necessary to
good health. They act as a filter
and remove from the blood poisoroua
waste matter which if permitted to
remain in the system leads to many
complications.
Many nervous, tired, run-down men
and women suffer from pains in the
back and sides, dizzy spells, bladder
weakness, sore muscles and stiff
joints and fail to realize that rheuma
tism, diabetes or even Bright’s dis
ease may result.
If you have cause to believe that
your kidneys are weak, disordered or
inactive you should act immediately.
Foley Kidney Pills have been used
by young, middle aged and old with
complete satisfaction. They act quick
ly and sure ly and *have given relief
!■ cases of ten years’ standing.
